Fun with friends
Last Wednesday we headed to the park with Jack and Caleb to play one more time before Jackson headed out of town on Thursday. I was able to get some really cute pictures of the trio as they played. And what outing would be complete without lunch at Chick-fil-a? Afterward Landree and I, along with Tricia and Caleb, headed to Target to get Cooper's birthday present {a baseball helmet and a Lightening McQueen Car}

We'll miss you friends!
I have some major catching up to do, and I figured the best thing to do is to start with the most recent things and then 'catch up' as I can.
Our friends the Lee, Denise, and Jackson officially moved yesterday to NC. Lee got a major promotion at a great company in NC. He's going to be vice president or something crazy like that. So sad for us, but we are so excited for them. What an opportunity and blessing!
We've been spending tons of time with them the last few weeks getting in every bit of Jack that we could. Landree and Jackson play SO well together. They actually play the best together of all of her little friends. They are only 9 days apart, and we are going to miss them terribly. Along with Lee and Denise too. They lived about 1/4 of a mile or less from us so aside from having a great friend near by it was super convenient to stop by for an egg, pepper, or whatever exotic spice I needed (like cumin :). I called her last night after they stopped by to tell us by on their way out of town and told her to stop the moving truck I needed some oregano. What will we do without them?
All joking aside...Lee and Denise moved here the same time we did, we started attending the church around the same time, they've been in the same family group as us, served in our youth ministry, we were due a day apart and had Jack and Landree only 9 days apart, and have lived so close to each other for so long it's hard to imagine what it will be like without them right down the street. We plan to visit a lot! Here are a few pictures from a little going away party we planned for them.
We had the party in our youth room at church and the kids had so much fun playing the piano and singing :)
Poor John Parker was sick, but isn't he cute?
We love ya'll friends and miss you already. See you soon! :)

Fun with friends
A few weekends ago all the dads headed to their annual 'man camp' where they go and eat boy foods like lots of steaks, and Beaufort stew, and onion sausage. They don't shower, and ride four wheelers, and shoot snakes.
The girls usually do something too. The girls weeks has changed over the last few years since we all have kids now, but we still manage to get together and have a lot of fun! JB does not like to stay home alone so Landree and I have stayed at least one night with her the last two years. This year we hired a babysitter for Friday night after the kids went to bed and we headed to dinner and the movie. We watched State of Play with Russell Crowe and Rachel McAdams. It was really good-and we talked without being interrupted all night!
Saturday morning we headed to our town's Kids Day. It's at our local park and there are all sorts of 'booths' set up. There were churches and restaurants the hospital and bounce playthings. It was super hot so after a snow cone and popsicle we decided to head home. I did manage to get a few pictures.
Enjoying a snow cone:
Cooper and Landree loving the tractor. Jennifer actually had to climb into the cab to get Landree out. Can you imagine me climbing up there? Thanks JB! The funny thing is my dad had a John Deere with a cab and Landree only gets close enough to have a picture made. She doesn't like loud noises. I don't know what she thinks-I guess she knew there weren't going anywhere.
And really this wasn't a tractor. Maybe it was a digger? I'm sure I'll learn all the technical names soon enough. JB can name all the tractors because of all the great 'boy tractor books' they have.
Landree's happy snow cone face:
We had lunch at Jennifer's and the babies took a nap before our friends headed over for more fun. We picked up pizza and had fruit and yummy desserts while the kids played the afternoon away!
The B's have so much to do outside. They have a huge yard and about a million balls. Here's Camryn her turn at bat:
Camryn and Landree climbed in and out of the wagon all afternoon. We all took turns pulling them around. Jack joined in the fun too:
Landree, Jack and Caleb hanging out in the swing:
Of course I don't have one picture of Logan or Cooper (Logan had to leave a little early and Cooper is never still enough to get a shot)-I did get this cute pic of Jack. It's a little out of focus, but I love his little face. Now why is it so hard to take a picture of Landree?

Jackson
This morning after running a few errands Landree and I headed over to our friend Jack and Denise's house to 'practice' photography on him. These were all done while he was playing-I feel like I got a lot of good shots considering it took about 10 minutes. I did have a giant ladybug on my head to get the natural smiles, but I'll do whatever it takes :)

USC Horseshoe Slideshow
This is the first slideshow I've made using PSE6. It was so easy thanks to the great tutorial that the Pixel Fairy Princess did to explain it on her production site!
Like I said most of the pictures are of the babies backs, but there are too many cute pics not to share...A little explanation...they loved the steps everywhere, and the house where so many of the doorway pictures are just so happens to be that of the president...oops...they didn't seem to mind. No one every came out to tell us to quit knocking on the door.

The song on this video is Sunny Days by Jars of Clay.

Break is over...
Ok, so the break is not really over...let's say I'm trying not to be quite so obsessive, but I had to post these cute pictures! It will be quick because we (our small group ladies) are hosting a baby shower for Robin and her TRIPLETS tomorrow so I'm getting things ready for that tonight.
This morning Denise, Jack, Landree and I went down to the USC Horseshoe (on the USC campus) to take pictures. It is such a pretty location and it was a beautiful day out. I've been dying to go back since we had our Easter pictures taken down there. It's so hard to get good pictures of 18 month olds! Most of the pictures are of their backs. My favorite pictures are of Jackson and one of them together. I edited them in photoshop using a tip from the Pixel Fairy Princess. I'll post more later!
